OP said that her daughter doesn't want to be "in the middle of nowhere", so that would eliminate Kenyon. That aside, however, I agree with your characterization of students at those colleges.

What? Pomona is so laid back. Especially compared to its peers Swarthmore or Williams. Pitzer is as laid-back as it gets, so I guess it's cutthroat relative to it? But the academics at Pitzer aren't so strong.

Why not a liberal arts college like Kenyon, Oberlin, or Colorado College? They're full of thoughtful and motivated students who are not hyper competitive, yet intellectually curious.
